Capitec forumites , just be careful. There is an email going around suggesting users should be aware of a " payment notice " from Capitec bank.

I have never been a client of or used anything related to Capitec, however I have over quite some time received a number of phishing emails obviously directed at their clients in an attempt to obtain their Username and Password for the Capitec website.

The most recent one tries to get them to go to http://insectfights.com/acus.php which then redirects to http://ismailsakar.com/ncbe/capitec.ins/cimt/capit.php

The part that is even more worrying is that I have a number of times attempted to email Capitec to warn them about the latest one I've received but every time the email is rejected.

These phishing scam emails that target Capitec customers continue to arrive. The latest one leads to....
